All 3 bubs from C4
Here are the 3 bubs all snug and warm in the nest - there are still 2 egg's to hatch ..
These 3 babies actually hatched earlier than they should have due to the heat we've been having .. but they are all very healthy, warm and moving alot !

New pictures of Clutch #3
WOW ! .. these bub's sure are growing ! .. I can't believe how quickly they've gone from tiny little bubba's to fully feathered and flying little birds .. they are so cute ..
They are starting to eat now - so they should be ready in 2 weeks to go to their new homes .. I sure am going to miss these little guys :( ..

Fully feathered and FLYING !
The babies are doing wonderfully !
They are all now fully feathered (apart from a few just missing under their beaks) .. but they've mastered the art of FLYING ! .. soon as you open the door - they are gone .. lol .. it's so funny, yet so dangerous ! .. several times they have hit the window or the glass sliding door .. ouch !
They hit the floor, give a yell and a shake and start twittering ... Koko the cat sits next to them alot now, the other day they thought he was me and that they were going to get fed ! .. lol .. so so cute - will have to put the video up ..
I noticed 1 of them actually drinking today ! .. yayyyy that's a very BIG achievement ! .. they are also picking at their pea's and corn and nibbling away at their seed blocks and millet .. they are still a few weeks off eating on their own, and I am still giving them 4 hourly feeds - 8am, 12 midday, 4pm and 8pm .....
